08B Roller Chain Sprocket — Precision Flat Sprocket for 12.7mm Pitch Chain Drives

When a worn or mismatched sprocket causes chain skip, premature wear, or unexpected downtime on your drive system, finding an exact-fit replacement becomes urgent. Whether you are a maker building a custom conveyor, a hobbyist assembling a go-kart drivetrain, or a maintenance technician replacing worn components on light industrial equipment, having the right tooth count and pitch match is non-negotiable for smooth, reliable power transmission.

This flat sprocket is machined to suit 08B roller chain with a 12.7mm (1/2 inch) pitch. Available in tooth counts from 31T to 45T, each sprocket features a precision-bored center hub and evenly spaced teeth for consistent chain engagement. The flat plate (simplex) design keeps the profile compact and lightweight, making it well-suited for space-constrained drive assemblies.

Typical applications include 08B chain drive conveyor systems, small engine power transmission builds, DIY go-kart and mini-bike drivetrains, and light-duty industrial machinery sprocket replacement. The 31–45 tooth range covers a wide gear ratio spread, giving builders and engineers the flexibility to tune speed and torque output to their specific requirements.

🔗 Compatible with: 08B Simplex Roller Chain — 12.7mm (1/2") Pitch | ISO 08B / BS 08B Standard

✅ Key Features of These 08B Roller Chain Sprockets

  • ⚙️ Exact 12.7mm Pitch Match
    Engineered to the ISO 08B / BS 08B standard with a 12.7mm (1/2") pitch, ensuring precise tooth-to-chain engagement and eliminating the chain skip that comes from mismatched components.
  • 🎯 Wide Tooth Count Selection (31T–45T)
    Eleven tooth count options from 31T to 45T let you dial in the exact gear ratio your drivetrain needs — whether you are optimizing for torque, speed, or a balance of both.
  • 🔩 Flat Simplex Plate Design
    The single-strand flat sprocket profile keeps axial width minimal, making it ideal for compact drive assemblies where clearance between components is limited.
  • 🛡️ Machined Tooth Profile for Reduced Wear
    Teeth are precision-formed to the standard involute profile, distributing chain load evenly across each tooth flank to extend both sprocket and chain service life.
  • 🏗️ Versatile Drive System Compatibility
    Suitable for conveyors, go-karts, mini-bikes, agricultural equipment, and light industrial machinery — anywhere an 08B simplex chain drive is specified.
  • 📦 Sold Individually for Flexible Ordering
    Each listing is for one (1) sprocket, so you can order exactly the tooth count and quantity you need without paying for parts you do not require.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which tooth count (31T–45T) is right for my application?

The tooth count determines your drive ratio. Divide the driven sprocket teeth by the drive sprocket teeth to get the ratio. A larger driven sprocket (more teeth) reduces output speed and increases torque; a smaller one does the opposite. For example, pairing a 15T drive sprocket with a 45T driven sprocket gives a 3:1 reduction. Use our tooth count range to fine-tune your speed and torque output to match your specific build requirements.

Is this sprocket compatible with standard 08B roller chain?

Yes. This sprocket is designed specifically for ISO 08B / BS 08B simplex roller chain with a 12.7mm (1/2") pitch. It will not fit 40 ANSI chain (also 1/2" pitch) because the roller diameter and inner link width differ between the ISO and ANSI standards. Always confirm your chain standard before ordering.

What bore size does this sprocket have?

Bore diameter varies by tooth count and is listed in the variant details. If you need a specific bore size to match your shaft diameter, please check the variant specifications or contact us to confirm before purchasing. Many flat sprockets can also be re-bored by a machine shop to a custom diameter if needed.

How resistant is this sprocket to corrosion and outdoor use?

Corrosion resistance depends on the material and surface finish of the specific variant. For outdoor or high-moisture environments, we recommend selecting a variant with a protective coating or using a compatible chain lubricant to extend service life. Contact us to confirm the finish specification for your chosen tooth count.

Can I use this sprocket on a go-kart or mini-bike drivetrain?

Yes — 08B simplex sprockets are widely used in go-kart and mini-bike builds. Verify that your existing chain is 08B (12.7mm pitch) and confirm the bore diameter matches your axle or jackshaft. The 31T–45T range gives you good flexibility for tuning top speed versus acceleration on small vehicle drivetrains.

How do I check if my existing chain is worn and needs replacement along with the sprocket?

A worn chain will cause accelerated sprocket tooth wear even on a new sprocket. To check chain wear, measure 12 links end-to-end: a new 08B chain should measure exactly 152.4mm (12 × 12.7mm). If the measured length exceeds 154mm or more, the chain has stretched beyond the recommended service limit and should be replaced at the same time as the sprocket to avoid premature wear on both components.

Is the sprocket sold as a set or individually?

Each order is for one (1) sprocket in the tooth count you select. This lets you order exactly what your build requires — whether you need a single replacement or multiple units for a multi-stage drive system. Simply adjust the quantity in your cart if you need more than one.
